Rewarding 'Stellar' achievements in the workplace

Published: November 07, 2016

Enbridge named to annual Canada’s Top 100 Employers list for the 15th time

How do you endorse an all-star performance in the workplace?

With a recognition program that’s truly Stellar.

Introduced across Enbridge in 2015, the Stellar program provides an all-inclusive forum for employee recognition. Available in both a peer-to-peer and leader-to-employee format, Stellar is a quick and easy way for members of Enbridge’s workforce to show their appreciation for one another.

“Stellar combines all the programs across Enbridge that previously provided cash on gift cards,” says Ryan Stelmaschuk, manager of benefits for Enbridge. “It combines recognition, service awards, wellness incentives and health-and-safety awards into one program.”

“That said, recognition is more about the feeling of appreciation than it is about fiscal rewards—and the Stellar program is designed primarily to encourage the use of non-monetary recognition,” he says.

Our focus on learning and development opportunities, including an in-house educational initiative that includes training in areas such as business and financial acumen, project management, personal and interpersonal excellence, leadership development, and energy-related studies;

Our academic scholarship program for children of employees who want to pursue post-secondary studies; and

Our retirement planning assistance, phased-in work options for those nearing retirement, and health benefits that extend to retirees with no age limit.

Enbridge transports 2.5 million barrels of crude oil and liquids a day, moves 7 billion cubic feet of natural gas a day, and generates more than 2,200 net megawatts of renewable energy.

“Every policy and employee program at Enbridge,” says Marc Weil, Enbridge’s chief human resources officer, “is designed to ensure employees get the most out of their employment, are rewarded for their hard work, and are able to develop their skills and advance their careers within the company.”
